FS - Front Runner bed bars (NOT a rack) - Eugene, OR - $175

I bought these rails and used them to make an elevated shelf to help separate stuff for camping. I recently scored a CargoSlide from @canopycarl and think it will replace any need I'll ever have for these bars. They are in pretty decent shape overall, but the powdercoat got rubbed off in a spot or two while they were packed away during a move. These things are super handy. They have slots in top and bottom that accommodate nuts or bolts, so pretty much anything can be mounted to these things. I think they were designed to use on an open bed, but I was able to mount them with a canopy on by using longer bolts. Also, they fit in any Tacoma with the rail system. I attached the perforated angle brackets to use as tie downs and to use as edges when I used a plywood shelf on it. I can include them if you want, or not. The rails are dusty in the pictures.

I can meet near Eugene, and I will be driving to Portland and back on Saturday, so we can arrange a meeting then.

 

More pics...

This picture shows the worst of the worn areas. This is on the underside of the bar. A little spray paint or spray on bedliner would cover it up just fine. The bars are aluminum, so I didn't care enough to cover it up.






Another pic of the top of things....





And one of the bottom....

 

Interesting. Do you have any pics of how it looked and mounted inside the canopy?

 

Unfortunately, no. I run a cab height canopy, and the bars typically sit 8-9 inches above the top of the bed. When I had it installed with the canopy, it gave me plenty of room to put my tent, sleeping bags, camp chairs, etc., that I knew I would want access to right away so I could set camp up without having to take other stuff out.

 

I have a Leer and there's a lip that that sticks out .25" past the bed rail, I wonder if that'll keep it from mounting flush. Thinking this could be a good option to mount traction boards and gas cans to if it'll work. I may be headed through Eugene this weekend, would you be down to test fit?

 

Picture for reference

 

I also have a Leer, and fits similarly. I'm headed to Portland Saturday, but can meet Sunday in Eugene.

 

And I'll check my old phone when I get home. I may have a pic of it mounted on it.

 

Couldn't find any pics, sorry.

 

No worries. There's a chance I'll be heading to Florence on Saturday and pass back through Eugene on Sunday, I'll reach out to you if that ends up happening.

 

Good deal. I actually live on 126 between Eugene and Florence, so if you're coming that way, it's even better for me. Let me know.

Interested in shipping?

 

This ad is two years old. I forgot I had ever posted this one. They didn't sell so I kept using them for another year or and then finally sold them a few months ago. Sorry I didn't delete this ad, but I forgot about it.

 

The excitement

All good man

 

I sold them to a member on here. Maybe they'll come up for sale again sometime and he'll pass the sweet deal I gave him on to you.

 

I have a question. You had this set up inside of a cap? Thanks.

 

I did. They mounted to the stock bed rails under the cap. It's been a while since I used it. I think I may have had to buy longer bolts, but no major modifications had to be made. The fit depends on how much overhang your cap has on the inside edge. I thought I had a pic but can't find it.

 

Here's a pic of it mounted to a cargo slide. It gives you an idea of the scale of it under the cap. It's a great system. Adding the perforated angle brackets made it nice for strapping stuff down too. I had a piece of plywood I cut and used like a shelf. I am planning to build a drawer system is the only reason I got rid of it.

 

No need, I can visualize it in my head. So it just happen to fit like that?

Reason I ask is, I have a cap now. It was used, a great price and even though I wanted windoors I bought this without because it was a great price.

Since no windoors I have been thinking about making an interior mole panel system for the sides and roof. It's not like I can use the sliders to pass anything through them so I might as well make it so I can mount a lot of stuff to it and in the process if I cover the windows a little so be it. I was going to tie it into the clamps that hold the cap on. I like the bed rail idea even more.
